A beautiful town: BELLUNO

Belluno is in the north-east of Italy. The most famous city near us is Venice. We live in a small village near Belluno, its

name is Sospirolo. In our area there is a park, the National Park of Dolomiti

Bellunesi. This is the park logo.

Venice is 150 km from Belluno away. It is called the Queen of the Adriatic. The city is a mix of water, land, bridges, narrow alleys, wide canals and islands.

Have a nice tour through the city by the typical gondolas!
